Certate 1003!!! Best Line???

Bash · #1 14-05-2014, 02:42 AM

Hi all,
Just bought myself a brand new Certate 1003 size! Was wondering what line do you recommend for me and I only want the best! Love sensor braid but want to try something different. Mainly using this reel for bream Fishing, soft plastics and hard bodies! Max 4pd braid no heavier. Haven't used unitika, toray or varivas lines before and wondering if you guys like them and what do you recommend. Like to hear any brand braid you like.

Thank you all in advanced.

I've been pretty impressed with Toray Saltline Lightfish.
Haven't used the 4lb but the 5lb, which is only PE0.4 IMO is good stuff. For such a light line I have had no wind knots in a couple of years of using it on a 1000 size Shimano.

Thank you Hornet. Will give that a go.

Anyone else recommend some p.e line/braid.

I totally agree. I've been using 4lb Saltline Lightfish for well over a year now and I love it. I now have 4 of my reels spooled with it. It's super thin and it casts very well and I don't recall ever getting a wind knot using it.

+1 for the Toray light fish, used the 6.5 and 5lb with little to no problems (especially compared to other lines on the market)
About to try unitika aorika on my certate 2004 have heard good things!

Keep in mind, without any real testing, lightfish seems to break pretty much at its stated breaking strain, unlike a lot of other braids.
If you decide to go lightfish you might want to take this into consideration.
